And former CSFD Station 3. Interesting.
You can remove Lidl. It's not happening.
Not surprised. Maybe that increases the odds that BCS will get a Trader Joes one day!mazag08 said:

Porters looks like it is getting closer -- lots of work still going on, but it is all finish-type stuff like wine lockers.
By the way, they seem to be a good example of why people complain about trying to do/open a business in College Station. A lot of their delays have been permit-related.

Caprock Hospital has their accreditation and hopes to open soon
Porters opens on Monday.
I searched but didn't see this...
The Eye Care Center (Dr. Belinda Dobson) is moving March 1st from the corner of Villa Maria and 29th to the Tower Point center: 903 William D. Fitch between Taco Bell and Bahama Buck's.
Also: the Hallmark next to Kroger on Rock Prairie is closing. This weekend is their last weekend I believe. Where am I going to get my keepsake ornaments now?

I spoke to the people in Hallmark and they have changed owners and will be under a different company for their buyers. They'll still be some kind of card store.egret said:

When I walked by yesterday, it didn't look like it would have any hope of being ready to open by Monday. Did you get confirmation of this from someone?Captn_Ag05 said:

As far as I know Porters is on TAMU property, so cocs has nothing to do with any permits for them. It would appear all of their delays are self induced.
They posted it on their social media yesterday.nought said:When I walked by yesterday, it didn't look like it would have any hope of being ready to open by Monday. Did you get confirmation of this from someone?Captn_Ag05 said:

They also posted today that they are taking reservations for Monday on Opentable.
Got a reservation for 2 on Monday.
My wife works at the Hallmark near Kroger in the Rock Prairie Center. It is not closing permanently. The store is going through an ownership change. They are clearing out the last of their inventory through this weekend. The store will be closed for a brief few days while the new owner restocks the store. The target date to be open fully stocked is March 5th. The store will still be a Hallmark, and my wife assures me they will be able to supply the Keepsake Ornaments and other merchandise you want. Please spread the word. Thanks.
West End Elixir location #3 coming September 2018.
So I guess El Loco Taco didn't make it?

Where?
Went to the Angry Elephant on Thursday night and I have to say I was disappointed. The food was a let down after looking at a lot of appetizing menu options. The House Made Chips that come with every dish are flavorless. They had a nice crunch's but lacked any kind of seasoning even though they were clearly sprinkled with 'something'. The queso was congealed and tasted like it came out of a jar. The bun on my hotdog was "wet", like one end had been dipped in water...no joke. The dog itself was tasty but the toppings of chili and cheese were underwhelming and lacked any kind of distinct flavor. Again, tasted like both were poured out of a jar or can. Went during happy hour when they have specials on bottled and draft domestics. Unfortunately, when we received our check, were charged full price because apparently Sam Adams' is considered a "premium" domestic, though no one cared to tell me that when I ordered even after asking what was on special and what was on draft.
I typically like to give a place a couple of months to work out the kinks but with limited seating (stood waiting for over 45 min at 5pm) and hit or miss wait staff (one bartender was nice enough but one clearly looked annoyed to be there), it might be a long while before I decide to try them again. Very disappointed since I've been waiting for a place like this to open in South CS.
Let's hope the Brazalian steakhouse has a bar.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but the CiCi's to go by the South College Station Lowe's is closed.
Went to pick up a quick dinner and the windows are blocked out with butcher paper and they have signs on the doors. There was also a U-Haul parked out back. Looks like they were moving everything out already.

Give us a review tomorrow!
How was Porters
I went to Porter's during their "soft" opening. Food was delicious. Gotta get the quail legs, those were awesome. Also had what I think they called crawfish cakes. That was to die for. Porter's is unlike Veritas or Republic in style and ambiance, but in the same category of good high end restaurants in town.
I'll go back. Nice place.

Went to the bar at Porter's Tuesday night before the baseball game. Excellent service at the bar and Chuck the owner met and talked to everyone. Pork belly appetizer and filet tacos were excellent. Cocktail was $10. Can not wait to go back for dinner. Love the open kitchen and decor. You can valet park at The George but it is $8.
My parents ended up going tonight for dinner. They both said the meal, build-out and service was top-notch and Houston/Dallas quality.

Looks like it. Too bad. The food was good, seemed like the owner was working his ass off though.
Does anyone know if there are plans for the new HEB complex on Wellborn and 2818 to have the ability to go south on Wellborn out of the lot? Right now there is a solid median along that stretch that would prevent a left out of the parking lot.
I believe so. Balcones is being extended from Welsh to Wellborn and the site plan calls for a light to be installed at the new Balcones/Wellborn intersection. I imagine that is being done in order to allow for traffic to go south out of the center onto Wellborn.
Still waiting for news on other tenants for this development!

Needs to be a light at Navarro/Wellborn too. Way too many idiots jumping out in front of people at that intersection.
What is going on with Howdy's Pizza at cap rock? No post on facebook since October.
I think Howdys is finally going to start within the next few weeks. RX pizza is starting next door to Mad Taco as well. Both will probably be done by early May.
Going to be a lot of dining options at Caprock ... as opposed to Tower Point's fast food emphasis.
We went by Mad Taco south last night to try their Cajun specials and it was packed! The specials were fantastic especially the shrimp & grouper etouffe taco and crawfish queso. Such a great restaurant.AGnCS said:

Looking forward to Rx pizza I love that place too.
